Title: | Amplifying and attenuating the coffee-ring effect in drying sessile nanofluid droplets | Authors: | Duan, Fei Crivoi, Alexandru |
Keywords: | DRNTU::Engineering::Mechanical engineering | Issue Date: | 2013 | Source: | Crivoi, A., & Duan, F. (2013). Amplifying and attenuating the coffee-ring effect in drying sessile nanofluid droplets. Physical review E, 87(4). | Series/Report no.: | Physical review E | Abstract: | Experiments and simulations to promote or attenuate the “coffee-ring effect” for pinned sessile nanofluid droplets are presented. The addition of surfactant inside a water suspension of aluminum oxide nanoparticles results in coffee-ring formation after the pinned sessile droplets are fully dried on a substrate, while droplets of the same suspension without the surfactant produce a fine uniform coverage. A mathematical model based on diffusion-limited cluster-cluster aggregation has been developed to explain the observed difference in the experiments. The simulations show that the particle sticking probability is a crucial factor on the morphology of finally dried structures. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/96312 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/10214 |
